If adolescents can count on one celebrity for positive reinforcement, it’s Keke Palmer. The child-turned-adult actress, who’s grown increasingly outspoken thoroughout the years, recently sat down with Madame Noire to talk about the pressures that come with being a young woman, including sex.

“Both men and women pressure each other for sex. We’re young, live your life and enjoy yourself. My thing is, people need to be with those who respect you. At the end of the day, whoever you spend your time with make sure they value you.”

She went on to dish on her own personal experience, recalling men that she had to let go because all they thought about was the vertical tango.

“It’s like they have a ticking time clock on you. It is not about the time, it is about making sure this is the right person…My priority is not the sex. I refuse to succumb to my flesh,” she concluded. “I will not offer myself up to someone who does not know my spirit.”
